Tom: C major
Verse 1
done in the midnight sun
F
C
By the men who moil for gold;
The Arctic trails have
their secret tales
F
That would make your blood
run cold;
Gm
C
The Northern Lights have seen queer sights,
F
Fm
But the queerest they e'er did see
C
F
Was that night on the marge
F
C
I cremated Sam McGee.
Verse 2
C
Now Sam McGee was from Tennessee,
F
C
where the cotton blooms and blows.
Why he left his home in the South
F
But the land of gold seemed to hold
C
G
That "he'd sooner live
C
in hell."
Verse 3
F
As we lay packed in tight in our robes
And the dogs were fed,
And the stars o'erhead
F
were dancing heel and toe,
Gm
C
He turned to me,
and "Cap," says he,
F
C
Well I ask that you won't refuse
Gm
C
my last request."
Verse 4
that I couldn't say no
F
C
Then he says with a sort of
moan:
"It's the cursèd cold,
and it's got right hold
F
Till I'm chilled clean through
Gm
to the bone.
dead—it's my awful dread
F
Fm
Of the icy grave that pains;
C
F
So I want you to swear that, foul or fair,
C
Gm
C
You'll cremate my last remains."
Verse 5
C
A pal's last need is a thing to heed,
F
C
So I swore I would not fail;
And we started on at the streak of dawn
F
But God! he looked ghastly pale.
G
C
He crouched on the sleigh,
And he raved all day of
F
Fm
his home in Tennessee;
C
F
And before nightfall a corpse was all
C
G
C
That was left of Sam McGee.
Verse 6
Some planks I tore from the cabin floor,
F
C
And I lit the boiler fire;
Some coal I found that was lying around,
F
Gm
C
And I heaped the fuel higher;
The flames just soared,
and the furnace roared-
F
Fm
Such a blaze you seldom see;
C
F
And I burrowed a hole in the glowing coal,
C
Gm
C
and I stuffed in Sam McGee.
Verse 7
(I) do not know
(How) long in the snow
Db
C
(I) wrestled with grisly fear;
But the stars came out
F
And they danced about ere again
C
G
C
I ventured near;
I was sick with dread,
but I bravely said:
F
"I'll just take a peep inside.
F
C
and it's time I looked";
... then the door I opened wide.
Verse 8
C
And there sat Sam, looking
cool and calm,
F
C
In the heart of the furnace roar;
And he wore a smile you could see a mile,
F
Gm
And he said: "Please close that door.
C
It's fine in here, but I greatly fear
F
C
You'll let in the cold and storm—
F
Since I left Plumtree, down in Tennessee,
C
G
C
It's the first time I've been warm."
Since I left Plumtree, down in Tennessee,
F
It's the first time I've been warm.
